Matthew Vlahovich (Lead Singer of Young Empires) and G

The babe-a-licious electro pop Canadian trio Young Empires played a show stealing set at New York’s Bowery Ballroom on August 13, 2010. Making this show even more special was the fact that this was the first show Young Empires played in New York. From the opening note until the moment they walked off stage, the crowd, including myself, loved what we heard. Their songs have a great beat and the vocals from singer Matthew Vlahovich are a bit like Trent Reznor meets Kele from Bloc Party. According2g, that’s amazing! If you click on the above link, you can download a free EP of demos by signing up on their mailing list. I highly recommend it! I met the band after their set and all three guys were beyond nice. Lead singer Matthew Vlahovich even commented that my eyes are as pretty as the ocean. Thanks Matthew! I’m returning the love by telling the whole world to put Young Empires on their radar because this band is going to be huge! Looking forward to hearing more great things to come from Young Empires.
